This book, "Dhamma Now 2" by Sarah Procter Abbott, comprises a collection of summaries and discussions focused on the understanding of reality
as taught by the Buddha, specifically within the Theravāda tradition.
Published in 2025 and licensed under Creative Commons, the text explores
various aspects of Dhamma in daily life, drawing from
Zoom discussions with Ajahn Sujin Boriharnwanaket and supported by
quotes from Buddhist scriptures. Key themes include the impermanence and non-self nature of all phenomena (anicca and anattā), the importance of right understanding (paññā) over conventional ideas of self or practice, and the subtle workings of consciousness (citta) and mental factors (cetasikas)
in shaping experience and perpetuating suffering (dukkha) through
attachment and ignorance. The book's purpose is to assist readers in
developing this understanding to gradually eradicate defilements and progress towards enlightenment.
